Heights is Happening

The home is exactly how it looks in the photos, clean and plenty of space for a family of 6. Close to lots of good restaurants (still need to drive though). We walked to Buffalo Bayou park a few times and ate at The Post, Tacodeli, Onion Creek and Common Bond. All cool places within 2 miles.

Great Location and clean house

Me and a few friends stayed here for the College Football Championship Game. The house was in a great location for Houston and in a very quiet safe neighborhood. Its walking distance of a brand new convenient store that had everything you could need. It was also very clean and matched the description completely. Definitely would stay here again if I'm ever back in Houston

Overall the property was exactly as advertised, clean and spacious. It is conveniently located in the heart of Houston, near events and activities. It is very close to the railroad tracks and at least 4 trains went by every night. I would highly recommend the use of ear plugs.

Great property in near downtown Houston

My friends and I enjoyed our time in this spacious home. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood that’s walking distance to a cool bar and less than a five minute drive to downtown Houston. The host was accommodating and response, leaving very thorough instructions for entering the home and other things. I’d definitely recommend and would return one day!
